Rachel Tile---described by Rick Blechta, award-winning author of the Pratt & Ellis Mysteries, as an out-of-the-ordinary protagonist who thinks too much ... and not enough--- is back! This time she's investigating a university colleague who's wildly successful in securing research grants to study organized crime, but who may be doing a little bit more than just writing about it. The trail leads her to the infamous Texas Killing Fields, where she uncovers a tangled tale of deceit, murder, and misdirection, and a colleague who may have sold his soul to the devil.
Tepperman draws on his long experience of academic life and his encyclopedic knowledge of sociology and criminology to craft a fast-moving mystery that takes the reader from Toronto to Texas and beyond.
PRAISE FOR DEADLY DONATION, THE FIRST RACHEL TILE MYSTERY
A cracking good read! Lorne Tepperman keeps the pages turning. -Lars Osberg, author of The Age of Increasing Inequality: The Astonishing Rise of Canada's 1%
If you like 'whodunit' crime fiction in a Canadian (read Toronto) setting, there is much to savour in this densely plotted saga. -Julian Tanner, author of Teenage Troubles
A powerful and mesmerizing gamble of a book, seen with the wise eye of a master observer! -Murray Pomerance, author of A King of Infinite Space
Deadly Donation is much more than a whodunit. It is a thoughtful meditation on truth, consequences, character and life's meaning. -Michael Adams, author of Sex in the Snow and Fire and Ice
Lorne Tepperman, a retired academic, draws on years of experience studying crime, gambling, and family relations in crafting this neo-noir thriller. -Rosemary Gartner, co-editor of The Oxford Handbook of Gender, Sex, and Crime
